Waters' Continues to Call for nazi Boycott of Jewish State

As morally reprehensible as John Kerry and Obama is for easing sanctions on Iran while threatening sanctions against Israel, the vile nazi roger waters is far worse. And no I am not using hyperbole in describing waters, who's relentless jihad against the Jewish state cannot be described as anything but nazism. Iran continues working on a nuclear bomb, hanging homosexuals and generally repressing its own citizens, there's a civil war in Syria which sees both sides engaging in wholesale massacre, al qaeda is taking over whole nations, muslims are waging global jihad, threatening to terrorize the Olympic games, terrorizing the entire world, Christians are being persecuted and slaughtered in muslim countries, China represses its own citizens and occupies Tibet. I could go on and on discussing the turmoil, wars and horrific human rights atrocities around the world. Yet the monstrous waters chooses as his cause, to organize boycotts against Israel. The only country in the Mideast where these horrors are NOT taking place, where Arabs have more freedom than in Arab countries. Where is the logic? Where is the decency and humanity in ignoring millions of suffering people and instead wage a campaign against Israel? There is only one conclusion which can be drawn and we all know what that is. I'm sure Scarlett Johansson does indeed care about human rights, Roger, which is exactly why she refuses to participate in your hateful boycott campaign against Israel, which is the ONLY Mideast country NOT engaging in human rights violations. And if you actually cared about human rights, Waters, Israel is the last country you would be focused on, you fraud. If you actually cared about human rights, you would be speaking out against Iran, Syria, Egypt, Libya etc. If you actually cared about human rights you would be speaking out about the plight of Christians under islamic rule. So with all the horrors taking place around the world which I mentioned above, the Obama administration, the EU, academia, human rights NGO's and celebrities set their sites on attacking Israel, making Israel a pariah, singling out Israel with calls for boycotts and sanctions. What is wrong with this picture? Can there be any logical explanation but antisemitism? If the west thinks it will buy its safety and security by throwing Israel under the bus, they will face a great reckoning. It didn't work when they sold out Czechoslovakia and rounded up their Jewish citizens and handed them over to the nazis, and it won't work now.

In a Facebook post, former Pink Floyd lead singer Roger Waters has called on singer Neil Young and actress Scarlet Johansson to support a cultural boycott against Israel.

In the post, Waters noted that he attempted to contact the two personally over the past few days but did not receive a reply from either one, so he took to the social network publicly.

Recently, Waters has become an ardent supporter of the anti-Israel boycott, divestment and sanctions movement.

In his Facebook post, Waters stated that Young has always been his hero and as for Johansson -- he met her at a Cream reunion concert in New York, where she left a positive impression on him as a fighter for human rights. Waters went on to say that Johannson must have fooled him, and that he was wrong about her.

Most of the post was addressed to Johansson and it attempted to rebut her claim that Palestinian workers at the SodaStream factory in Mishor Adumim -- across the Green Line -- get equal rights. He signed off his note with the sentence, "Scarlet, you are undoubtedly cute, but if you think SodaStream builds bridges towards peace, you are undoubtedly not paying attention."

In an interview in CounterPunch magazine's December 2013 issue, Waters lashed out against Israel, artists who perform there, and even Israeli producer Shuki Weiss, who was in charge of Waters' 2006 concert in Israel. In the interview, Waters compared Israel to Nazi Germany, saying, "The parallels with what went on in the '30s in Germany are so crushingly obvious. ... The situation in Israel/ Palestine, with the occupation, the ethnic cleansing and the systematic racist apartheid Israeli regime is unacceptable." During a concert tour in 2012, he displayed the Star of David alongside fascist symbols on a pig-shaped inflated balloon.

In 2006, Waters asked to change the location of his concert from Hayarkon Park to the town of Neve Shalom due to Palestinian pressure. At the time, Waters said he was "happy to perform before anyone who believes in peace. I do not discriminate against any of my fans."
